BBBSLA continues to see how the transformative impact of mentoring changes the narrative for youth facing adversity. For the last three years, BBBSLA has achieved a 95% graduation rate among our high school seniors across all of our programs. This year, we are proud to announce that 94% of our graduating seniors are college bound. For these reasons, we see that BBBSLA’s youth are “at-potential” for continuing their success and achieving beyond all expectations.

BBBSLA provides children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-onerelationships that change their lives for the better, forever.
